Why do people let DOGS lick their face ???

You better be too. As we get older we have less resistance to the colds, flu, and pathogens from other folks and on our food.

Our society has over used antibiotics to the point super-bugs are here. We are just a waiting for the right bug to wipe out three quarters of us. With our international travel a super bug can move all around the planet in just a few days. So here we are the richest, smartest society ever in the history of humankind and we are so arrogant, thinking our sh!t doesn't stink and we can do whatever we want because we are so smart and the doctors and scientists will cure anything, Just like on TV. It is not a matter of if there is another plague of the black death, it is just when. I hope my diligence will give me better odds.

The day I die because a dog licked me is the day it's time for me to go. Because if i'm that frail, then i'm probably on my death bed already.
 
You seem to be the one bringing kids into the discussion. Do you open mouth to mouth and tongue kiss your kids? That also would be gross...

MM


How old are they?

You guys are complete idiots. Do any of you really know how disgusting the "human condition" is? I flew out to CA a little over a month ago and contracted the H1N1 flu on the flight out there (based on I got sick a day later).... continued to fly around the country infecting 1000's of people only to end up in the hospital about 5 days later. Sickest I have been in my life... and then was diagnosed with pneumonia as a complication from the damn flu and have been living on steroids, antibiotics, vocodin laced cough syrup and an inhaler. And you are telling me my Golden Retrievers are disgusting?! Really?! I'm thinking the guy who wipes his ass on the seat in the airplane or sh!ts on the pillow I am sleeping on in San Francisco is where I'm contracting stuff. The cat poop in between the dog's teeth is nothing compared to the germs on an airplane or in a hotel. Ever been on a cruise ship?!? You get to share bad food and germs with 3000 of your close personal friends.

Sorry about the pillow incident Gary...
 
Yeah well.. The only thing that complements having H1N1 flu in SF is going out for really bad sushi the night before getting on an all day flight to the east coast to visit Sea Ray... Sorry Rusty.

Wait... People eat raw fish? OH NO!!!!

I help rescue dogs, dogs are better than a lot of humans.

What are you doing visiting Sea Ray?
 
Hey Gary, I understand what you are saying about travel. Spend 15 hours on a commercial flight going to Korea sandwiched in like sardines. Another hour in a bus to the hotel. Group meetings all week all over Korea. Eat the local foods, then back home via the same route.
I was sick for the next 2 week after returning home.

That being said we all work in places where people sneeze on door handle, forget or don't change everything in the hotel room, or clean the head in our boats as well as my good friend Scott does. (You know I'm kidding buddy). Are you going to die if a dog licks your face? Chance are not. Are you going to die if you accidentally ingest feces? Maybe but probable not.
There is a case in the bible where Job let dogs lick hie sores to relieve the pain. Not sure what that's all about.

So it boils down to personal preference doesn't it? I choose to not let a dog lick me in the face. It's gross to me. But then I don't let anyone lick my face. I wet willy may see serious consequences too. :lol:
 
Try riding a nyc subway at 2am on a sat night. I saw a dude pulling crap out of his pants and throwing it at people.
 
I don't think he got throat cancer from licking a dogs face.
He admits now that he never had throat cancer to start with...it was tongue cancer. Germs is everywhere you know, always a risk so we need to be careful but something about shrink wrapped women just don't seem right.
